I enjoyed my stay at Catalonia La Maquinista. The rooms were spacious and very clean, and I loved the breakfast selection. However, the hotel is quite far from the main attractions in Barcelona, making transportation a bit challenging at nighttime. Overall, it’s a good option for those looking for comfort and a pleasant atmosphere. 😌🌟

I had a decent stay overall, with some good experiences and a few disappointing moments. The room was clean and spacious, which was a plus, but the lack of basic amenities like a kettle really stood out. I had a frustrating experience at the spa that overshadowed my visit a bit, but I appreciated the friendly staff at the reception and cafeteria.

The room I stayed in was beautiful and very clean, but I expected a bit more considering it's a 4-star hotel. The lack of basic amenities like an electric kettle and bed slippers was disappointing. The noise insulation could be better, as I woke up several times during my stay due to noises from the corridor.
